ADAC prognosis on road fatalities: Vision Zero does not advance in 2023
The automobile club ADAC expects only a slight decrease in the number of people killed in traffic accidents in 2023. According to the club's latest forecast, 2,730 people will die in traffic accidents this year. This represents a decrease of 2.1 percent compared to 2022. In the previous year, 2,788 people lost their lives. The lowest number recorded so far was in 2021 (2,562 fatalities). Last year's increase was primarily attributed to the largely normalized traffic volume after the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the club. This year, traffic was almost back to the level it was before the pandemic.
According to ADAC, the number of traffic accidents recorded by the police is expected to increase by 3.1 percent to 2,480,000 in 2023 compared to the previous year. In contrast, there is a decrease of 0.6 percent to 288,000 in accidents involving personal injuries. The number of people injured in road traffic accidents is at a similar level to 2022: the automobile club expects only a 0.5 percent decrease to 362,000 injured persons.
The efforts to reduce the number of fatalities in road traffic by 40 percent between 2021 and 2030 need to be intensified, according to the ADAC, because the targeted significant decrease in the number of traffic fatalities will also fail to materialize in 2023, according to ADAC. The federal government, states, and municipalities had agreed on this reduction in the "Pact for Road Safety."
The club is particularly relying on the further expansion of driver assistance and emergency braking systems, which have particularly great potential for improving road safety. Extending the learning period in driver education (driver's license at 16) is also an important tool to reduce accidents involving young drivers. Generally important is considerate behavior in road traffic, which the ADAC underscores as a partner of the #mehrAchtung campaign for better co-existence on the roads.
